"Good CAM software for the price"

2/5

What do you like best about VisualCAM?

Low initial cost and yearly maintenance fees. The nesting module was given away for free in an update a few years ago. There is very little learning curve, as features are straightforward and consistent. Software is not overly complex. Knowledge based machining is a very handy feature, allowing you to reuse common cutting strategies. Using knowledge bases, toolpath geometry can be automatically assigned by layer, color, or type, which can reduce programming time. Customer support is helpful and timely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VisualCAM?

Program is very buggy. Crashes are all too common when posting code or modifying geometry. Network license is lost very frequently. CAD features are clunky at best, and cause the program to crash without warning at worst. Some features seem to work intermittently (trim and extend are hit or miss for me). Screen picks must be very precise, which can slow the user down quite a bit. The nesting module is useless for all but the simplest of jobs. Feature recognition only works for solid models, and gives mixed results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering VisualCAM:

If you value low cost, ease of use, and good customer support over advanced features, automation, and lack of frustration, VisualCAM is a good choice for you. My company has used VisualCAM for many years to program one-off cabinet designs utilizing mostly 2.5 axis toolpaths. The program is ill-fitted for our use, but the low cost keeps us coming back. This CAM software is best suited for high-volume production runs or 3 axis machining. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is VisualCAM solving and how is that benefiting you?

VisualCAM gives my company a cost effective way to generate programs for our CNC router. With CNC technology, we are able to produce complex cabinet designs quickly and accurately. We also utilize its 3 axis toolpath strategies to create complex parts for fiberglass manufacturing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
